How to install
Via app:
1) Download TWRP 3.0.0-0 from the link above and place it on internal storage of your phone.
2) Download Flashify app from Google Play Store.
3) Open Flashify app.
4) Grant root permissions.
5) Click "Recovery image" and then click "Choose a file"
6) Navigate to the folder where you placed TWRP 3.0.0-0 and choose the .IMG file.
7) Press "Yup!" button and wait.
8) After a while the phone will require reboot. So click "reboot" button.
9) Phone will reboot and automatically boot into TWRP, so you can press reboot to system.
10) Enjoy!
Special thanks to Oneb1t for modded .fstab file! :highfive:
edit: you can use Flashfire app too instead of Flashify, but it's not recommended, because the latest version of the Flashfire app is not flashing properly.
Brilliant! Thank you so much! Do you know any custom ROM what is better than the factory ROM?
There is no custom ROM for this phone yet.
But I'm trying to make LITE ROM.

Do you think it's easier/possible to adapt a ROM from a similar device like say, the Alcatel
Pop 2 (5) Premium ? I don't know if there's any ROM for that phone tho, but since it's branded as Alcatel you might get more support from the community here than by using Vodafone's name.
Hello, Demonlord6.
I have tried to make a stock flashable ROM via dumping the system folder and the boot.img file, but without success.
It does not boot properly.. when I tried to flash it without dalvik/system wipe everything was as before.
When I tried to wipe /system and dalvik first and then flash the ROM, it causes bootloop.
So now I'm trying to fix this issue..
I don't know where the problem is.
So when this issue will be solved I will try to build a ROM from Alcatel phones with same specs.

Hey, Andreno306
I don't know much about Rom's in that level of expertise I'm afraid :/ but I did some digging and came across this simple tutorial on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387941
I imagine it does not work for every single device out there, at least not with modifying stuff after, but it might be a good starting point I think, in fact I would try to actually make one myself had I a working PC currently at home. But even if I did I had no way of testing it because this is currently my daily driver phone.
Just wanted to say that I'm also very interested in getting a slim ROM for this device. I can't offer any expertise I'm afraid! Just wanted to show that there are people interested in your project.
:highfive:
Stock Kernel
Thanks, it works great.
This is little off-topic but does anyone has the stock kernel, i flashed NeoKernel but it is not that good and i forgot to make a backup do can anyone please link me to the stock kernel?

But I recommend to restore it with the flashify app, because that's how the backup was made.
If, for some reason, you don't/can't restore it, then you can always try Sugar on the PC which basically restores everything to factory settings (recovery, kernel, etc, it all gets reset)

Restored and my phone keeps turning off after boot(once i saw the turn off screen, other times it just vibrates at boot screen), isnt it the wrong file? (flashed wia flashify)
I was able to restore the boot from TWRP (lucky i made a backup this time)

Sorry there about the bootloop but glad u could restore it from TWRP, maybe it was because we have different ROM versions ?

Yeap, that's not the same version as my ROM, mine is not 130FNN etc. Maybe that's why it didn't work

Sorry for the stupid question but... does it works on Smart Prime 7 too?
Has anyone installed that linked ROM? It seems to be what we are looking for... a slim debloated rom.
I presume we need to be rooted, install this TWRP, then flash that ROM?
It mentions unlocking the bootloader, I dont think I've seen any info anywhere about unlocking the bootloader.
Can anyone give a quick lowdown on all the steps required to install that ROM please?
Hi everyone, I discovered that Elephone Trunk and Smart Prime 6 have (almost) identical specs: https://www.devicespecifications.com...ison/c584481c6
So it would be great to "port" (or build ?) the official Nougat-OmniROM for Trunk to VF-895N: http://dl.omnirom.org/trunk/
Last but not least, here's official Vodafone Smart Prime 6 sources: Vodafone_Smart_prime_6_20150413.tar.xz
TWRP for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
I tried this recovery image for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
The phone is in a bootloop state. I think i have usb debugging enabled already.
So, in fastboot mode i can see the device in my pc in adb fastboot cmd.
Im trying to ''fastboot boot recovery.img" but it stops in ''booting..''.
Dont know whats the problem but for sure i can not find a specific twrp image for this device.
If i enter fastboot oem device-info it says ''(bootloader) Device unlocked: true''.
Any ideas ?
hi i was wondering if you could share how you did this or if you can make one for the Vodafone smart n9 (VFD720) it would help a lot of people out looking for this
Needed to root a Vodafone Smart Prime 6 (VF 895N) (got it from a friend because it became unresponsive from all the updated google play stuff ) to get linux-deploy running. Just wanted to leave a big thank you here for Adreno306 for his TRWP 3.0.0-0. it did the job very well!
Only the procedure to get it installed differed quite a bit for me, since Flashify is no longer available.
I wanted to preserve boot and just flash trwp to recover, what worked quite well.
The first thing I did was to boot the phone manually in recovery mode (Power+Vol up) and reset it to factory settings from there. It takes a little while. Then follow the setup, go to phone settings, enable developer mode and set usb debugging. If "unlock oem" is not available there, reboot into recovery again, set unlock there and reboot into bootloader.
The prerequisites are adb and fastboot, both must work. Means adb devices and fastboot devices must show the phone. What can make problems under win10 as it sometimes does not detect the phone in bootloader mode. An actual google usb driver is needed, as provided by google.
For me adb worked well, but when rebooted into bootloader with adb reboot bootloader, fastboot didnt detect the phone. With the phone still connected, the windows device manager showed an unknown device with and exclamation mark (!). Right click, install driver, select driver manually, select driver from device list, mark all devices (first entry) and click "disk", then point to the usb driver director and select "ADB fastboot driver". ( A more comprehensive description is available here )
Once adb and fastboot detect the device, it is time to prepare it. Boot to system (normal operation) first. Make sure that the TRWP 3.0.0-0.img is renamed to trwp.img and then
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot boot trwp.img
Now the phone should show the trwp menu, set it up to root the phone and install SuperSU. Reboot into bootloader and
fastboot flash recovery trwp.img
fastboot reboot
Verify with adb reboot recovery, you should see trwp now. Reboot to system.
Now finally go into the app selector, start SuperSU, and root the phone. SuperSu uses trwp recovery mode to install its image and root is done.
Again, big thanks for providing the TRWP image!

Hi, I would like to try your tutorial but I can't root this phone (which is an important step in the tutorial), is there any way someone could help me??
Thanks
I had been struggeling myself alot with this but after looking everywhere I collected pieces of information all over XDA and fixed it.
Since all the information is scatterd around everywhere I thought it would be good to make a complete piece here.
I have only tested this with the device: (Honor 8 FRD-L09)
If anyone got this working on other devices please leave a comment so I can add it to this list for other people to see.
So here it goes:
1- First you need to be have an unlocked bootloader.
2- Flash via fastboot the new TWRP with decryption support Here
3- Download two files:
a- update.zip Link (1.5G)
b- update_data_full_hw_eu.zip Link(1.05G)
4- Flash these two files using TWRP (a then b)
5- Reflash TWRP (using fastboot)
Finally, to root, you need to flash this patched prerooted boot.img B378 root boot image (from SD card): Link(15.8MB)
You can do this with OldDroids TWRP or with surdu_petrus TWRP: Link(36.2MB) and Link(24,2MB)
1- Flash OldDroids or surdu_petrus TWRP
2- Select "Install" -> Click "Images" -> Go to External SD and select your rooted_b378_boot.img
3- When it asks where to install click boot.
4- Then reboot and install phh's superuser from the playstore (its the only superuser that works for now)
5- Install JRummy's Busybox Installer and install to /vendor/xbin
Done!
Note: To get AdAway working, go to Preferences, then scroll down to "Target hosts file" and set it to "custom target". Then set Custom target to "/vendor/etc/hosts"
If you have any questions feel free to send me a message I had much trouble with it too.

Quick Question: I have installed normal TWRP 3.1.0.0, every time i want to install the newest SuperSu Beta, it resets TWRP completely. Is your guide also going to work for me, or do i have another problem?

Yes SuperSU doesn't work as far as I know you need Phh Superuser.
But if you already have nougat 7.0 B380 you can just begin at the boot.img installing step and it should work for you too.
Good luck!
Ok, but you linked "twrp-3.1.0.0-eva", i've installed "twrp-3.1.0.0-frp" - do you know, where the difference is?
Edit:
Well, something has gone wrong. Doesn't boot...stays on that screen forever...i tried restoring the backup i took while the system was read only with TWRP

The difference is that the TWRP that I linked can flash .img 's
wich you need to flash the boot.img
Try to get back in TWRP and start at step 1 just do the whole guide then your phone should boot again

The "twrp-3.1.0.0-eva" is for the Huawei P9, the "twrp-3.1.0.0-frD" is for the Honor 8.
And first boot after TWRP install can take longer that usual:
Q: Why does booting take so long?
A: Because of the decryption process which need to finish
its work before twrp tries to access /data partition.

Try flashing the pre-rooted boot.img via fastboot command line.
Worked for me.
Code:
Copy the pre-rooted boot.img to the adb/fastboot directory
(have usb debugging enabled etc etc, connect phone to computer)
Start a cmd box
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot flash boot rooted_b378_boot.img
reboot device.

I can boot into TWRP no Problem, as i said, i restored the backed up image (somehow after a factory reset, the stock apps as well as the keyboard was gone, i could not type in my wifi password) in TWRP, but it sat for about 10 Minutes on that screen when i turned the phone off.
I do not have very good Broadband, so i will start at the first step, installing the update files, linked in the first post.

Yeah.. A FactoryReset seems to be a big "no no" after flashting TWRP as it will delete the keyboard and other stuff.
I was in that situation and restored a TWRP backup which got me back to booting into android, but somehow the Camera and LED (flashlight) didn't work.
Restoring an older and a complete backup did not help. Flashing the Update files did not help.
Eventually I ended up following the Honor 8 Rollback steps; going from Emui 5 (android 7) back to Emui 4.1 (android 6).
That also means the Bootloader is locked again, so you'll have to re-unlock it again (if you still have the code, you can use it again).
My steps after the Rollback:
- OTA updated back to Emui 5,
- Factory reset (BEFORE installing TWRP) and reboot.
- Enabled USB debugging,
- Unlock bootloader,
- Flashed TWRP and immediately after that I booted into recovery and rebooted,
- Rebooted to Fastboot (via adb reboot bootloader),
- Fastboot flashed that pre-rooted b378 boot.img and rebooted,
- Installed Phh's root.

I had the same as you describe here but I fixed it by flashing the 2 files I posted up here (a and b)
After doing it step by step as described in the first post, it worked I also flashed the P9 TWRP, just to make sure. It works! But i already miss Resurrection Remix from my Mi4c...
However, does this mean TWRP Backups are useless? :/

Hi,
maybe what I am going to ask sounds silly but as I am a kind of newbie hope you will forgive me
Why do we have to install a prerooted 378 image instead of a prerooted 380 Image. Aren't we on 380?
Where does this 378 image come from? Until now I only saw Nougat's 360 & 380 Roms.
I am already on 380 but my root doesn't seem to work properly so I wanted to give a try to thierrybla's OP's post but I don't know if to follow his instructions by using OldDroids TWRP to install his suggested prerooted 378 Image or instead by using OldDroids TWRP to install the other thread's Prerooted 380 img.
What shall I do if I'm already on 380 but would like to try thierrybla's procudure so see if I finally get a well-rooted 380 rom?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hey,
Your question is not stupid I can see why you are confused but everytime I tried to root or preroot something it didn't work for me I also run 380 and once I tried the prerooted 378 made by atariii it worked so there is no reason te be skeptical because I was in the same situation as you and this worked for me just give it a try you won't be disappointed
Thanks for your quick answer!!!
Ok, so I understand it is safe to install prerooted 378 image while being on nougat's 380. Thanks, I will try it right now!

Hey thierrybla, it worked beautifully! Thanks!
The only thing I did different is too install the prerooted image with Fastboot instead of the Oldroid Twrp.
I was afraid of messing my good working TWRP setup and decided to try what N01tra user suggested.
It worked like a charm! Thanks again!

Please help me.... I want to install custom rom but the twrp not installing in my phone it showing error when I flash it by fastboot.... After unlocked my phone one time i flash a stock rom and after that no ota update install and no recovery install please help me give me a solution plzzzzz..........
1) With flashing TWRP - what error did you get? If it was an error such as 'Image not signed or corrupt', that's normal. I think it shows up as we don't have the cryptographic keys to sign the recovery, but as long as adb reports [OKAY] at the end of the response, you've flashed TWRP. Ensure you reboot into recovery straightafter to prevent the stock recovery replacing TWRP.
2) Which ROM did you flash, and what do you mean by no recovery (i.e. are you able to boot into recovery, or does it come up as a blank screen?)
maybe the information in the bootloader are already of interest..

Stock ROM will automatically overwrite TWRP if you don't boot into TWRP and enable system modifications. And, flashing stock ROM will also overwrite TWRP.
Please READ and SEARCH the corresponding threads before posting such silly questions.
Hi guys,
First, English isn't my first language so, sorry if it hurts your eyes :/
Second, I'm new to TWRP / root etc... (since yesterday) and I don't fully understand the exact meening of all words like flash / rom etc...
So: I'm actually blocked in the "Your device can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader". Apparently it's a normal screen now, when we boot we always see this. OK ( at least that's what I read)
My volume keys aren't doing anything and I can't access my phone anymore.
I can access TWRP if I want.
Thx for responding :good:
Adb & fastboot still recognize your device ?
If yes flash twrp as recovery with fastboot and boot into it with fastboot.

How can I know if ADB recognize my phone?
I can access TWRP so I don't need to flash it again ? Is there a difference between just flash TWRP and flash TWRP with fastboot ?
Sry, my bad, i miss read that you can access twrp, sry, I thought you can't, what happens if you flash a rom, which twrp is installed, what were your steps that you end stuck on bootloader message ?
Edit: if your issue is that you don't know how to start flashing, read the Los thread and follow the op.
Instructions:
1. Install the Universal bootloader and your model specific modem.Failure to do so will not allow flashing the ROM!
2. Update recovery [Recommended -> Official TWRP for Axon7
3. Factory reset if coming from another ROM.
4. Install ROM
5. Install GApps (optionally) [Recommended -> Open GApps (arm64) (7.1) 2017-02-01 or Newer
Download all files from the thread and put them on to your microsdcard, if your twrp is up to date you don't have to do this again. Flash the zip files in the order of the instructions, just press install at twrp and choose the zips, you can add multiple and flash them together.
Man, trust me, I'm not a lazy man and all I want is to have my phone back even if it's stock
I don't understand what you're trying to make me do, sincerely
If you can give me a link where I can have a guide steps by steps or make this guide for me that would be the best thing of my day...
... I really need to wait wtf
update: I wipe all my phone data
I no longer have TWRP installed but the "basic" android recovery
(with those option when you start it:
Reboot system now
reboot to bootloader
apply update from adb
.
.
.
Power OFF)
I'm such a **** wtf
I really don't know your issue, except you seem not to read enough. What guide you want ? How I flash a custom rom to my phone ? How to use twrp ?Why you unlocked your bootloader ? How did you manage to have the stock recovery back ?
I have to guess what you want and what you already did . If you need a guide, here are severals in the guide section.

So you are stuck with stock recovery and not TWRP? If so I would find a guide to "flash" or install TWRP in what is called EDL mode.
If you can do that, you then need to:
boot directly into TWRP and wipe dalvik, system, data, and cache.
Then install universal boot loader and modem for your device. (A2017G)
Next install latest TWRP img found on https://TWRP.me
And lastly reboot into recovery again and install Rom (version of Android you want to try) and any other modifications you want (kernel, gapps, magisk, etc.)
If you have any questions don't be afraid to ask. Good luck!

What? You can flash the ROM after flashing the universal bootloader, then also flash TWRP via itself, and you'll stay on the latest...
Rebooting without a ROM is bad. just bad. even rebooting to recovery. that's how i got my dfu brick

I am not 100% sure what you are saying. But yeah, sure. Flash the Rom after the universal bootloader and modem. Then flash twrp. Then reboot.
If you think that is better for OP then that works. I haven't ever had the problem of rebooting to recovery without a rom installed but you're right that it probably is safer.
I only suggested that because the TWRP that comes with the real old universal bootloader on LOS thread is also very old. So, flashing a rom with the new version I thought would be best to avoid errors. Thanks!

The thing is, after you flash the universal bootloader, the TWRP on the sd gets replaced. but the TWRP that you are using is loaded in RAM. So even if you install a TWRP version you'll stay in the version you flashed before until you reboot. If you install the universal bootloader and then install the TWRP img you'll keep everything as-is on the next reboot. I discourage rebooting without a system especially on a G because any interruption might lock the phone in DFU. On an a2017U that wouldn't be a problem because the phone boots into edl if any software error is present
This is the latest Nougat update that was released on 06/11/2018. It does not flash recovery or laf. If you must have laf, there is an additional zip to flash.
It is still ARB 2, so you can flash back to any version of Nougat.
I have removed the recovery-from-boot.p file from system so that recovery doesn't get overwritten, but that is the only change that was made -- this is not a debloated ROM.
Please let me know if you have any problems.
ROM download: h901_v30d.zip
OK, now for my spiel on laf...
You only need to install the laf zip if you have installed TWRP on laf in addition to recovery, and you would like download mode back.
I *HIGHLY* recommend that you keep TWRP on both recovery and laf. You will never be in a situation where download mode would help you, but TWRP couldn't.
You CAN be in a situation where TWRP could have helped you, but you are just stuck with download mode.

Thanks for the update. I was very quick! I wanted to report that when flashing it did not show each file flashing like it usually does, it just keeps saying " please wait" , and then it finishes and on to the next zip which was the root file flash, that acted normally. I'm grateful Brian! Thanks
I'll take a look, I am sure I messed up a progress meter.
Thanks,

woohoo!

thank you man! it works like a charm. no problem at all. .
:highfive:
Does it matter what version I'm coming from? Receiving a refurbished phone tomorrow that is supposed to be on LP but could be MM or even Nougat. I want to install TWRP like I did on my original phone (MB died) then upgrade to this.
Nope, doesn't matter. Once you get TWRP on your phone, you can flash this and go straight to the latest.

Does anyone have a link to the actual kdz?
I re-locked the phone trying to fix a grayed out "Enable OEM unlock" switch that was turned off in the developers options and in the process of locking the bootloader, it is unable to boot up again but I can still get into fastboot and download modes.
I know how to restore the phone through LGUP, just need the kdz, either 30c or 30d would work, thanks.
For some reason it seems that flashing this relocked the bootloader and bricked the device. Getting the message "Your device is corrupt. It cannot be trusted"
Was on 5.1.1 and it's my wife's phone. Downloaded the zip and Magisk and rebooted into TWRP. Flashed and now just about bricked. Now to try and see if I can unbrick the phone.
